Analysis Tools Missing

DevinHanel

Hello,

I am trying to add a reference layer to a map in Power BI, but the Analysis Tools are missing from my toolkit. Is this because I do not have adequate permissions in ArcGIS Online, Power BI, or potentially both? I have a Power BI Free account and in ArcGIS Online my User Type is 'Creator' and my Role is set as 'Data Editor'. Any further information around how to configure Power BI/ArcGIS Online to allow me to create hosted feature layers for use in Power BI would be much appreciated.

 

Thanks!

I was having the same problem with User Type 'Creator' and Role 'Data Editor'.  When I created a new ArcGIS visual, it displayed this message at the bottom: 

I reported this to my ArcGIS administrator.  He said there is no "Creator" Role available by default (he said the next level up is Administrator), so he created a custom role "...that basically lets you do all the sharing and editing that you should want without having administrative overreach" 

Here's what my settings in AGOL now display (note that PowerBI Power User is a custom role):

Whatever settings my Administrator applied to this new role resolved the issue for me.

I think Esri needs to re-evaluate the message as it seems to indicate that there is a Creator Role available when in fact there is not. Perhaps loosen the requirement to User Type = Creator and Role = Data Editor
